I'm not a rivet counter, if the game is fun, with good flight and damage modelling with 100+ players at same time, i'm all in.

At least with the Unreal engine, its probably ensured that there isn't any clipping/zbuffer/hidden-face-removal issues like with AH3, where roads, the own tanks gun, and other GVs are drawn on top the trees that should be hiding them.

Do you just make up stuff to post here?

Any advance in the AW line is good news for us. Fanboi attitude is poison.

When I see an advance, I'll cheer it on.

1.  I think the use of the Unreal engine is intriguing, but I've only seen implementations that had areas that looked about 10-20 miles square.  So, who knows if they can make anything usable out of that.  We've seen no evidence yet.  Just some static screenshots probably from the Unreal editor program.

2.  I think their multi-level payment model with a few f2p planes is smart.  The "simple, short trial and then pay our subscription of F'off" model is as dead today as $2/hr was when HTC came in with flat rate.

Nothing else I've seen so far comes close to a definition of advancement.  I await further data.

I have a hunch Wild Bill is holding an ace up his sleeve this time, they wouldn't be bringing up MicroProse name up for nothing,  few days before release, they will have a gameplay trailer that might have the potential to blow us away

Wild Bill is from "Warbirds" not Air Warriors, but if you mean "Any advance is WWII sims is good news" I can get on board with that.

Agreed, an announcement in the WWII combat sim field is great, but I'll wait to see what released before I get too excited. But there is always hope

Instead you get texture pop-in, etc.

It was Wild Bill that caused the original Microprose to go under.  I have a feeling history will repeat itself.

Maybe I'm old fashioned but I'm suspicious for any flightsim that can be played on a mobile phone.
